Uncle Dennis, you were the best uncle that I could ever have! You always paid me when I was young to, mow the lawn, wash cars and trucks, that really helped out the pocket book, you were a great payer. You let me get so much experence running all of your equipment. That helped me learn a very valuable trade. As I got older you let me go to work with you.
You made such a effort to make it easy to get the equipment and materials to landscape and put in my driveway at our properties. I loved to go to yours and Aunt Nadines house. I loved to just sit and visit you. Its just like having a second dad. You had such a distinct voice. I thought it was like John Waynes. I am going to miss you so very much! I already do. I will love you always, Steve,Sue,and Sven Alskog and Brandi &Kyle Smith.
PS. I would like to say that it was a honor to be there with you and your family at the end of a great life.

We express our sympathy to Nadine, Tim and all the other family members. I got to know Dennis through Chuck in school. He was a wonderful man. I enjoyed talking to him and thank him for all his help on my projects through the years. He was a generous person. My parents will enjoy Dennis' passion by using the motorhome they bought from him. We all have fond memories of him and can share with each other throughout our lives. He will be greatly missed.
